Recent buys




These are a few things I have bought over the last few weeks. After my March shopping ban I was desperate to go out on a shopping spree as there was so so much I had my eye on. I have been loving Zara at the moment and I believe they are seriously at the top of their game this season. However, I have had my eye many on beauty products lately just because I enjoy trying new products and finding what suits me best. Boots have had me captured with their '3 for 2' deal, it always makes me buy more than I planned... thats not a good thing!
       
The Vans I have been wanting for ages, I already have the navy blue pair but they are old and taty now! I really love Vans, I think the boyish edgy look of them is really nice. I have been wanting these black pair for some time now and bought them in Office at Westfield. 
       
Recently, my hair has been flat and looking lifeless. I am a fan of thick, wavy, beachy hair and unfortunately I have quite thin hair so to achieve this look I have to search out the perfect hair products. I brought this Charles Wortington Volume spray in Boots last week and have been seriously impressed with the results. It leaves my hair volumized, bouncy and thick. I finally think I have found my holy grail hair product, it really does wonders to my hair.
       
This Real Techniques Stippling Brush has really done its rounds in the blogging community, the reviews have been fantastic. I couldn't wait to use this to apply my liquid foundation as it intends to leave the skin looking 'airbrushed' and yes it really does. It makes applying foundation much much quicker which is a huge plus point. I now know why there was such hype with this brush!
        
 I have sensitive, quite dry/combination skin as for that finding the right products for my skin is essential. I used to use the clean and clear exfoliant but this left areas of my face very dry so I was on the look out for a gentle cream cleanser. This Nivea cream cleanser is just what I was looking for. Its gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling so smooth! I apply this every morning and wash it off with cold water, an everyday essential for sure!
        
E45 cream is perfect for many skin complaints or for generally dry skin. I have quite ruff, bumpy skin on my upper arms and was told by the pharmacy this was the best cream to use essentially to reduce this problem, it works very well. I cant say it makes a huge difference but it definetly leaves my skin much smoother and less irritated


                                                 Hope you are all having a lovely Easter!
